Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 6 June 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.
Government of Wales Bill
I realise that there are issues with the precise detail of legislation. First, however, I have shown that the broad principles of developing Welsh legislation will be easier to identify because the Bill makes provision for that. When it comes down to the particular detail, is the noble Baroness suggesting that Welsh Ministers, exceptionally and separate from all other members of the Executive in the United Kingdom, will set out to establish a system inferior to that which currently obtains? I do not see why it would be in their interest to do so, but even if it were conceived of that somehow it was, I have already identified ways in which they can be held to account and in which they are under obligations. That is the only answer that I can give to the noble Baroness’s question.
